FFwD - Goats Cheese Mini Puffs

Friday has rolled around again, and yes, it is French Friday with Dorie time. This week's recipe was Goats Cheese Mini Puffs. Luckily, I had a dinner party last weekend, so I had plenty of helpers to eat these puffs.Basically, this recipe involves making choux buns and filling them with a goats cheese-based filling. I didn't have any cream cheese, so my filling was 150g goats cheese, some chopped fresh chives (in lieu of herbed goats cheese), and enough cream so that the filling was smooth when beaten together with an electric mixer.Et voila - you end up with a delicious little savoury that is so good, it is difficult to stop eating.To see some more of these, visit the LYL section of the FFwD website.Have a good weekend.

Kudos to you for whipping up the fresh herbed cheese. I was contemplating how to accomplish this when Nana offered me her left over pre-made herbed goat cheese from BJ's. Voila indeed ! We loved these tasty little things as well - a real hit. Happy Thanksgiving !!
